How to create placeholder columns?

Answer Posted / sudipta santra

1. In Report's Data model part, click on Placeholder column
from toolbox, then a placeholder column will be created with
default name CP_1 as like if u want u can change the name.
2. Go to the PL/SQL by right clicking on the newly created
placeholder column in data model.
function CP_1Formula return char
begin
return null;
end;
3. Click on Formula column from toolbox, then a formula
column will be created with the default name CF_1/CF_2 as
like that, if u want u can change it's name.
4. Go to the PL/SQL by right clicking on the newly created
formula column in data model.
function CF_1Formula return number
begin
if :stock<10 then
:CP_1:= 'Too less stock';
elsif :stock<50 and :stock>10 then
:CP_1:= 'Average stock';
else
:CP_1:= 'Good stock';
end if;
return 1;
end;

Note: Here the placeholder column is used with the null
carrying result but when the formula be used then the
placeholder will get value and will carry this in report.
And also we can use this anywhere in report as according
application requiremnt needs.
